The oil has an intense golden color, with a straw tint. The nose is expressive, with the dominating aroma of fresh basil, underlined by a touch of mint. Then we find the aromas of fresh vegetables (zucchini, cucumber in the background), fleshy beefsteak tomato, as well as fresh olive, fresh thyme and fresh bay leaf. The flavors on the palate reflect the aromas – the attack is on fresh herbs (basil, mint in the background, rosemary, thyme), then combined with notes of roasted zucchini with herbs, grilled eggplant, roasted red tomato, as well as toasted almond, dried bay leaf and roasted bouquet garni. The texture is dense and enveloping, with a pleasant roundness. Very persistent on the palate, with notes of basil and roasted vegetables.
